I’ve done a lot of bikes over the past few years, partly because it feels like we’re immersed in bike culture in Colorado, and partly because bikes are great to look at. But I had yet to create a women’s version, relying primarily on images of my classic English-made Raleigh.

Last week I received a request to create a custom stencil featuring a ladies cruiser. It was fun, what with all the elegant ladylike curves. Wish I had done it sooner.
